Vaskrheim

Vaskrheim is an ancient abandoned temple in the south of Askr that once used to house the divine weapon Breidablik. Shortly before the Múspell invasion of Askr, Brave Heroes summoned by a rite in the Kiran's world began to appear at Vaskrheim, acting as its guardians, with more continuing to appear as time went on. It appears in Fire Emblem Heroes.

HistoryEdit

In ancient times, Vaskrheim was a temple in the south of the kingdom of Askr. Sealed away in the temple was the Breidablik, a divine weapon capable of summoning heroes from other realms.

At some time during Askr's history, the temple was abandoned, and its name largely faded from common knowledge, with the Breidablik eventually passing into the care of the Order of Heroes.

Many years later the Order's Commander, Anna, managed to use the Breidablik to bring the legendary Great Hero known as the Kiran to Askr to help them in their war against the Emblian Empire.

Soon after this, and shortly before the invasion of Askr by Múspell, the kingdom of flame, a legendary rite was carried out in Kiran's home world, fulfilling the prophecy that "A legendary rite shall call forth Brave Heroes." This led to four Brave Heroes appearing at Vaskrheim, who were gradually followed by several more through the war that followed.

Brave HeroesEdit

First Brave HeroesEdit

The first legendary rite led to four Brave Heroes being summoned at Vaskrheim:

• Lady Lyndis of Caelin
• Princess Lucina of the Halidom of Ylisse
• Ike, Commander of Tellius' Greil Mercenaries
• Roy, son and heir of the Marquess of Pherae

Emblian forces quickly invaded the south of Askr and managed to bind them in a contract, but this contract was broken by the Order of Heroes, freeing the heroes.

Farfetched HeroesEdit

Three months after the first Brave Heroes appeared, four more "offbeat" Brave Heroes from different worlds appeared at Vaskrheim:

• Dorcas, a mercenary from Bern
• Lute, a mage from Renais
• Joshua, a wandering swordsman from Jehanna
• Mia, of Tellius' Greil Mercenaries

Again, Embla managed to bind them, and they were released by the Order of Heroes.

People's HeroEdit

Another three months passed, and this time a single Hero appeared at Vaskrheim, an older version of one of the first Brave Heroes, from a different rite held in Kiran's world:

• Ike, General and Leader of the Greil Mercenaries

This time, the Order of Heroes managed to arrive before the Hero appeared, without interference from Embla, and were challenged by four of the Brave Heroes who were guarding Vaskrheim: the original Brave Heroes Ike and Roy, as well as Mia and Lute.

Brave Heroes of the Second RiteEdit

A year after the initial Brave Heroes appeared, four more arrived, summoned by a second rite in Kiran's world:

• Hector, Marquess of Ostia
• Princess Celica of Zophia, Warrior Priestess of Mila
• Prince Ephraim of the Kingdom of Renais
• Princess Veronica of the Emblian Empire

The Order of Heroes heard rumours that one of the Brave Heroes was the Princess Veronica, but reconciled with all four after defeating them.
